My sponsor will be my new employer. While waiting for SC pass/fail, i am interested in leaving my current employer and going freelance as its taking so long.
Do I have to inform vetting of my change of circumstances i.e I no longer work for the employer I put on my form?
I know there is a change of circumstances form for people who already have SC but can find no info on people who have applied for SC
Cheers in advanceLeave a comment:

Originally posted by zonkkk View PostExcuse my ignorance, what is the 'one time portal access' thing?
The client that will sponsor me have their own vetting team which will take care of everything.
the client may well have a vetting team. They're just being paid to do what you could do on the portal, in a few hours.
Sounds like HP/DXC with that sort of cottage industry.Leave a comment:

My last one was one day short of a month, and that was with some clarifications asked for by the vetting agency.Leave a comment:

Originally posted by Lance View PostIndeed. In general I don't think a non-criminal activity would be a problem (excluding excessive debt, gambling or alcohol addiction), but do SC sponsors pass any information to the vetting agency if they walk someone off site?
There is still a gap at the moment how information between regional professional units will be shared more freely but I know later towards late 2020 there could be a new tougher regime that could be in place for all officers/staff/contractors if there is a go ahead to trial it.Leave a comment:
